The ftrace graph tracer needs to override the return address of an instrumented function, in order to install a hook that gets invoked when the function returns again. Currently, we only support this when building for ARM using GCC with frame pointers, as in this case, it is guaranteed that the function will reload LR from [FP, #-4] in all cases, and we can simply pass that address to the ftrace code. In order to support this for configurations that rely on the EABI unwinder, such as Thumb2 builds, make the unwinder keep track of the address from which LR was unwound, permitting ftrace to make use of this in a subsequent patch. Drop the call to is_kernel_text_address(), which is problematic in terms of ftrace recursion, given that it may be instrumented itself. The call is redundant anyway, as no unwind directives will be found unless the PC points to memory that is known to contain executable code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
